chapter 8 (1/1)

Jonghyun’s POVAfter we tore out of the building, which I am sad to say was super easy, I pulled her aimlessly down random streets, taking turns here and there. “Where the heck are we going?” she whispered as we walked a dark alley. Her closeness sped up my heartbeat and I hoped she didn’t hear. Gotta stay focused and get as far away from that hell as possible.“Down this alley.” That’s a great answer! *total sarcasm*“Well no dur” she retorted. “But seriously, where are we going?” I thought for a moment.“How about we go get you some new clothes… to look less… suspicious” I mentioned pointing at her ruined outfit. She looked down and bit her lip.“Yeah that’s probably a good idea…” we stopped at the nearest clothing store and she picked out a pair of skinny jeans, a simple t-shirt, and flip flops. I paid for it all with the money Key had just given me yesterday while Elle went and changed.“Do I look less suspicious?” she questioned as she walked out of the changing room. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail with her bangs hanging in front of her eyes. Though the outfit was plain it was pretty. I just stared at her for a minute spacing out ‘til she waved a hand in my face.“So yeah. Uhm… what next?” I stumbled. Damn it all!She gave me this ‘really?’ look “What? I thought you were the man with the plan! So think of a plan!”“God there’s no reason to freak out! Chill. We-““I want to go home.” No need for a plan I guess.“O….K… lead the way.” (heh that rhymed)Elle’s POVI led us to Joanna’s apartment and when I walked I swear all hell had broken loose.“WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN!?!?” “WHY HAVEN’T YOU ANSWERED YOUR PHONE!?!?” “IF I COULD GROUND YOU I WOULD!” “WHO THE HELL IS THIS GUY!?!?” I just sat there and rolled my eyes while she let it all out. Poor Jonghyun was sitting next to me on the couch looking scared to death.She finally collapsed onto a chair with a huff. “I don’t know why I give you the same speech every time if you still never answer me.” She mumbled to herself.“I don’t bring  guy home all the time! But this is Jonghyun. Jonghyun this is Joanna.” Joanna gave him daggers and he gave her a deer in headlights look.“Well this isn’t awkward at all.”I stated with complete sarcasm. Why doesn’t she like him at all? He didn’t even do anything wrong! Gosh she has some problems“So what now? Does he stay here?” her voice seeped with anger as the words left her mouth.Though the question was directed at me Jonghyun answered “No that’s ok. I can just go back…” his sentence trailed off, most likely because of the look I gave him. There was no way in hell I was gonna tell Joanna about Key and everything. When he just left us hanging I think it kinda broke her heart a bit and I didn’t want to bring him up again.“oh it’s perfectly fine if you stay in our apartment. It’s obvious Elle wants you to stay so why don’t you?” he nodded his head in agreement. “Now that that’s settled, do you have any extra clothes?”“not really…” he cautiously answered like he was afraid she’d snap if he said anything wrong. I think it’s safe to say he was honestly scared of her.“well then. I have some old guy clothes I need to get rid of so you can have them. She went into her room and came back with a large stack of clothes that I recognized.“You still have his stuff?” I wondered aloud. She ignored my question and threw the pile at Jonghyun’s face. “they might fit. You can sleep on the couch. ” she left and the door slammed shut leaving us together in silence. What is her problem!?“I’m sorry about the way Joanna treated you. I don’t know what’s wrong with her.” i looked down at my nails shaking my head.“its ‘kay. I understand.” the moment got totally awkward for some reason. “uhm, where’s the bathroom? You know so I can change…” I didn’t even realize it was that late. Wow. I guess you loose track of time when your kidnapped by your ex best friend and pass out for a few days.“oh right here.” I showed him the bathroom and went to my own room to change. I finally turned on my phone and it suddenly showed 78 missed calls 56 new messages and 27 voicemails. I clicked the view now for all of the missed calls.Joanna, Joanna, Joanna, Joanna. I scrolled to the very top, Joanna, Joanna, Minho. Wait, Minho? Why did he call me? I then checked my voicemails and all 27 of them were Joanna's usual ‘call me, fool!‘ type messages. So he didn’t leave a message?? Weird.I heard a knock on my door. Looking down I noticed I hadn’t changed. I quickly grabbed a pair of shorts and a t-shirt to change into “come in.”“do you have any extra pillows or blankets?” he opened the door and stepped in my room. He was wearing sweat pants and a white t-shirt that was a little tight on him. I just gawked at his muscles for a second and a little too obviously. He waved his hand in front of my face “pillow and blanket?” he reminded. I could feel my cheeks go bright red. Why did he have to be so hot??“oh right.” I grabbed a pillow I didn’t use off of my bed and a blanket from the hall closet. “here you go.” I said as I handed them to him. He stepped closer. “soooo yeah…” my feet shuffled backwards, slowly taking me towards my room and away from Jonghyun. “night!” I shut my door and laid in my bed staring at the ceiling. Calm down. There’s only a hot guy who saved you sleeping on your couch in your living room. No biggie… yeah right.I was finally feeling the sweet release of sleep when my room suddenly flooded with light. So this chapter was kinda awkwardly written and boring... sorry! but i promise i will try harder next time! and at least i updated!
